Sharon marveled at Donna’s natural talent, which seemed to transcend ordinary abilities. “Wow… She truly is a prodigy,” Sharon thought to herself in awe. But a nagging curiosity crept into her mind, causing her to wonder about Donna’s desires for fame and fortune. “Doesn’t a gifted child like her yearn for the glitz and glamour? The adoration of millions, the exquisite clothes, and the vast wealth?” With this curiosity in mind, Sharon proceeded cautiously, delicately broaching the topic with Donna.
“If you were to become a celebrity, Donna, you would be adored by many,” Sharon began, her words filled with a sense of wonder. “Every day, you would don beautiful clothes, fit for a star, and earn a substantial fortune! People would scream in excitement and snap pictures whenever they catch a glimpse of you. You would even have personal bodyguards to accompany you wherever you go, ensuring your safety. Doesn’t any of that allure to you? Isn’t it something you look forward to?”
To Sharon’s surprise, Donna’s expression grew somber, her eyes filled with a depth of understanding beyond her years. “But Sharon, I already have plenty of pretty clothes,” Donna replied earnestly, her voice laced with a touch of sadness. “And money has never been a pressing issue for me. You see, my dad has assured me that he will pass down Morris Corporation to me in the future. With that, I’ll never have to worry about running out of money…”
Dumbfounded by Donna’s revelation, Sharon could hardly find the words to respond. “Your father will pass down the corporation to you?” Sharon asked, her voice tinged with disbelief. Donna nodded matter-of-factly, her confidence unwavering. “Yes, Sharon! Besides, don’t forget I have two brothers. If they fail, I’ll support them enough for survival. But I have faith in their abilities; they’re bound to be successful. They’ve also promised to take care of my mom and me, so I’ll be perfectly fine!”
Sharon felt a sense of insignificance wash over her as she compared her own life to Donna’s extraordinary circumstances. “This girl has already achieved so much, while the rest of us are still struggling at the starting line,” Sharon thought, a tinge of envy creeping into her consciousness. “Who knows, perhaps I’ll end up working for her in the future! The power of a strong family background is truly awe-inspiring!”
Lost in her thoughts, Sharon’s train of thought was abruptly interrupted by Donna’s remark. “About being liked by lots of people… Nelly told me that money is the only thing universally liked by everyone in the world,” Donna shared, her expression contemplative. Sharon’s eyes widened in surprise; she hadn’t expected such maturity from someone so young. “There will always be those who love and hate me, regardless of how famous I become. I stumbled upon news articles about you yesterday, and I saw that you have both fans and haters. Being a celebrity doesn’t guarantee everyone’s approval,” Donna continued, her tone wise and insightful.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Taken aback by Donna’s profound musings, Sharon couldn’t help but be impressed by the depth of her understanding. “How does such a young child possess such wisdom?” Sharon wondered, her admiration for Donna growing stronger by the minute. “There is definitely more to her than meets the eye! I have a feeling that whatever path she chooses, she’ll achieve immense success. With her education and family background, she’ll outshine every other celebrity in the industry! It reminds me of when I first embarked on my own journey…”
With this newfound realization, a warm smile spread across Sharon’s face, her heart filled with genuine joy. She affirmed Donna’s sentiments and offered words of encouragement. “You’re absolutely right, Donna. Always remember what you said today. Stay true to yourself, no matter what the world throws your way. Don’t let others change you easily,” Sharon affirmed, her voice filled with conviction. Donna nodded gratefully, her eyes sparkling with determination. “I’ll remember that,” she promised, her voice laced with gratitude. “And please, spare me the details of the haters. Just hearing about them makes me angry,” Donna added mischievously, a playful smile dancing on her lips. Sharon’s eyes gleamed with delight, a genuine smile adorning her face. “Well done, Donna! Let’s focus on the positive and leave the negativity behind,” Sharon replied, her voice filled with warmth and encouragement.
